<h1>How to contribute</h1>

<p>Do you have a TikZ example that you want to share? You are more than welcome to contribute 
examples. See the <a href="/contact/">contact page</a> for details on how to contact me. All contributed examples
must be released under the <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5/">Creative Commons attribution
license</a>.</p>

<h2>Guidelines</h2>

<p>Publishing the examples is not a fully automated process. Manually editing is necessary
to ensure that the code conforms to the website format. To make the process easier for the
maintainers, please follow the guidelines below.</p>

<ul>
    <li>Limit length of lines to approx. 80 characters to avoid horizontal scrolling.</li>
    <li>Provide a short summary/description of the example.</li>
    <li>Suggest appropriate tags for categorization. Feel free to suggest new tags. </li>
    <li>Try to keep the code clean, focused and easy to follow. Explain tricky parts with comments.</li> 
    <li>Use indentation where appropriate.</li>
    <li>Comment your code.</li>
</ul>
